Windows 7: USB Data Issues

I have several USB ports that are hooked up (and have worked perfectly before) that arent working correctly anymore. They supply power but do not send or recieve data. I just noticed it recently when I reinstalled my OS it may have happened before but I havent used those ports in awhile.

What I have done is turned off all power saving settings, turned off all power saving for USBs, and when to divice manager>usb>usb (all generic and root hub) and turned turned off "allow the computer to turn this device to save power".

Any tips or advice would be helpful. If I am missing any information required do let me know.

You may try that in advanced power options too. If these are front panel ports or add on ports, you may try unplugging the header from the motherboard and plugging them back in. Otherwise, see if this helps USB Driver - General Fix for Problems
